  • Title: [Military psychiatry in a theatre of operations: on mission in Mali].
    Author: Colas MD.
    Journal: Soins Psychiatr; 2015; (297):34-6. PubMed ID: 25975168.
    Abstract:
    The recent missions of military psychiatrists in the theatres of operation underline the reactivity of the French healthcare system, focused on the expertise of the combat unit doctor. Operation Serval in Mali illustrates in particular the methods of medical-psychological support in exceptional situations, across a vast geographical area and in very difficult climatic conditions. The concept of "forward psychiatry" has a particularly important role to play in the early screening and treatment of psychological disorders in order to preserve the operational capacity of the deployed personnel.
